Posted August 7, 20241 yr comment_6023209 Really interested in what type of match they work and if the crowd will buy into it. Gonna be a stark contrast to MJF vs Fletcher, most likely.
August 8, 20241 yr comment_6023215 Good match between MJF and Fletcher, but it was a bit amusing how Ospreay seemingly quite easily got out of the room where he was "trapped", but chose to do so only after the match was over
August 8, 20241 yr comment_6023216 This Toni-May feud has been extremely well-done. Hot feud. No way Mariah gets booed in London tho, right?
August 8, 20241 yr comment_6023220 That was a pretty solid show top to bottom, and damn did the main event make me wish someone would invent a time machine so we could see Dragon vs Dragon.
August 8, 20241 yr Author comment_6023223 Even though the live crowds don't treat him like the biggest deal in the company, I do believe Swerve has taken full advantage of the spotlight he's been given as champ. Dude just feels like the World Champ. Yuta getting sent to a kayfabe hospital while Danielson has to watch what's in store for him would be awesome storytelling. They better not fuck it up next week.
August 10, 20241 yr comment_6023275 There should be a case study done on Jeff Jarrett, man. Like, he was just in the midcard during his WWF run & I couldn't stand him. He was boring during his solo push in the IC division but he was fine during his tag stuff with Owen Hart. In WCW, when they tried to make him a top guy, to me, it didn't work at all. To be fair though, most shit in WCW at that time wasn't any good, that wasn't just Jarrett. He's always been fine in-ring but outside of a catchphrase, his WCW run was pretty forgettable, but in smaller promotions, like TNA iMPACT or AEW, he really kinda moves into his own lane & becomes quite entertaining. His Double J Double M A stuff in TNA was a ton of fun & I've really liked his Last Outlaw stuff in AEW. I've never really liked The Stroke as a finish, regardless of who was using the move. The one in this match with Danielson was particularly bad but it's like, with all the issues he's had with concussions, I don't think anyone is blaming Dragon for not taking a better looking bump on the chair. I wouldn't be opposed to Jarrett going into the WWE HOF tbh.
August 10, 20241 yr comment_6023276 These past two years are some of the best work of Double J's career for sure. I think he might be the only wrestler to actually benefit from the Conrad podcast network because he seems like such a genuinely good dude. It's probably pretty fair to say Jeff Jarrett is the most important and influential non-McMahon in US wrestling between 2001-2019.
